Crysis 2 Set in New York

What’s that sound? It’s the sound of a million grieving computers that won’t match its system requirements.

We’ll keep this one short. As the image above no doubt infers, the PlayStation Official Magazine has got its hands on Crysis 2, which will be its front-page material for the March issue. This will also be the first full reveal of the game, of which we have only seen a teaser video so far. So yeah – aliens, check. New nanosuit, check. Replacing jungles with a city a la the Predator movies, check that too.

There were already comparisons made with Predator back when Crysis came out, and it looks like we’ll be settling for an urban nanosuit-wearing predator this time round. And since Crytek is making it, Crysis 2’s New York City is bound to look even more real than the real Big Apple. It’ll be based on the CryENGINE 3 and the game will come out at an unspecified date (presumably next year) for the PC, PS3 and Xbox 360.

Oh, and you’re probably going to have to upgrade your PC. You’re welcome.
